The season was winding down, and The big Sleep was kicking in. the
necessary hibernation before spring training I was poolside at
Kah-Ne-Tah, w ith a pitcher of Rob-Roys and a FedEx from Caracas when
out of nowhere l was blind-sided by a wolverine, all fu r and fingernails It
was screaming 'You swine' So this is what you do w ith all that expense
moneyf i was entangled ,n deck furniture, but managed to extricate
myself from my deranged editor a fte r several frightening moments As we
squared off on the concrete deck, I could see he was obviously unbalanced
‘You crazy inkhead' Now you ve gone too far'* I shouted ‘ The season s
over, I'm on vacation, so take a powder»'
'Oh, No. No. No. my lit t le cash cow You s t ill owe me one * With that he
picked up an empty Tequila bottle and babbled ominously, 'And I've come to
collect * He then took a swing at my melon that looked much like Derrick
May trying to fight off a curveball He sprained his w ris t on the forehead
of the w aiter who had just showed up for a cocktail order As he began
bounding about the pool keening in pain and despondency, I knew it was no
good I was locked in
'My advertisers' My cred itors''
'Never mind that,'I snarled, 'We have work to do'
' I f you 're not having fun In b a s e b a ll, you m is s the p o in t of
